Caitlin Clark Shows Clear Frustration During Fever-Sun Game
Caitlin Clark Shows Clear Frustration During Fever-Sun Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Friday night's contest between the Indiana Fever and the Connecticut Sun at Gainbridge Fieldhouse was a tightly contested, high-energy affair that ultimately saw the Sun emerge with an 85-83 victory over the Fever. Advertisement Connecticut jumped out to a strong start, holding Indiana to just 16 points in the second quarter, but the momentum swung back and forth throughout the night. By halftime, the Sun led 43-39, thanks in large part to Marina Mabrey, who finished the game leading all scorers with 26 points, five rebounds and five assists. However, midway through the third quarter, a pivotal moment unfolded when Mabrey was whistled for a blocking foul. While the official call stood, Fever star Caitlin Clark, who is sidelined with a left quadriceps strain, believed it should have been ruled a take foul. A video soon circulated across social media that captured Clark visibly frustrated as she strode onto the court to voice her disagreement to the referee. Drafted first overall in 2024, Clark quickly reshaped the Fever's trajectory in her rookie season, averaging 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds and 8.4 assists per game and leading the league in assists, making her the first true rookie to do so in WNBA history.

Wooden Awards. The Fever have now dropped three straight, including the past two with Clark out of the lineup.
